2010 Playoffs: Round 1, Game 3 - Spurs vs Mavs Game Blog

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

shake n bake

[slick'81]

lead down to 2

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Finally RJ...

[slick'81]

here come the spurs

[ffadicted]

I can't believe this is like, the first time we've gone to RJ in the post against Kidd

[GSH]

Kidd looked like he was in a slap fight with RJ.

[100%duncan]

big 3 missed dirk for two stupid

[NewJerSpur]

Terrible matador defense by Jefferson.

[EmptyMan]

why not lay dirk on his ass on that play????????

[angelbelow]

shit.. we need manu or RJ immediately..

[slick'81]

70-66 dallas after 3

[Crookshanks]

had to turn the volume down - couldn't stand the man love for JJ

[Spurs Brazil]

Dallas up 4 after the 3rd

[Death In June]

17 straight points without a timeout? Why? Who does that?

[dbreiden83080]

One bad fuckin stretch cost us everything.

[superjames1992]

How do we let that midget Barea torment us every time we play them?

Manu is struggling and I doubt the nose is helping.

[100%duncan]

this sucks why cant manu hit those big time needed threes while that midget can

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

I can't believe JJ is killing us again.

[TDomination]

this could've been much worse...but my goodness we have had so many opportunities to blow this thing wide open and we never could

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I'd really love to know why we fuck up just about every 3rd Q. Done it all year, but i have no idea why.

[boutons_deux]

Spurs offense, shooting %age died

[Libri]

crazy frustrating quarter :bang

[lurker]

Are the other Mavs fans in the NBA forum? I'm like the only one in here. :lol

[007nites]

Hopefully the mavs will cool off

[timtonymanu]

I dont like this, but we manage to have some momentum.

Manu and RJ have got to score. Hill needs to stop playing like a dumbass. Bonner needs to GTFO.

[Texas_Ranger]

I still don't know what is Bonner doing there.

[NewJerSpur]

Kidd looked like he was in a slap fight with RJ.

Yup. If Jefferson presses him more, the refs will be forced to call a foul and it'll take Kidd off the floor. Got to start exploiting that stuff. We shouldn't be shooting ANY jumpers.

[HarlemHeat37]

It's kind of sad that Barea has single-handely changed the outlook of this game, just like he did in last year's series..this guy is a scrub, Mavs' fans hate him, yet he always kills the Spurs..

Spurs desperately need some 3s and Bonner needs to stop being completely useless..

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

i thought JJ was hill's bitch....

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Uggggghhhhh Spurs really need this game. Let's go SA

[slick'81]

dallas made there run 4th quarter will be the spurs

[MB20]

Dirk scored 16 in the 3rd qtr...

[u4lakers14]

them ole spurs looking their age in the 3rd

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Still in the game, but this team sure loves to make things hard for themselves.

[Crookshanks]

I can't believe JJ is killing us again.

They need to foul him hard. None of this letting him take whatever shot he wants.

[100%duncan]

If Dirk does not choke we are dead

[fred33]

34 mn george hill it's insanee????

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Hopefully it took a lot out of the Mavs to make the comeback and they start the 3th a little gassed similar to game 1.

I think it sounds crazy but maybe TD should play all of the 4th, since the Mavs are up.

And tons of McDyess in quarter #4 as well hopefully.

[Capt Bringdown]

As is our fashion, Spurs turn a Dallas scrub into an all-star.

[Spurs Brazil]

This start of the 4th will be key with TD on the bench

[MI21]

Ruff, the Spurs have been fucking up 3rd Quarters since 2008. I'm not sure what it is.

Anyway, way to hang around.. We need either Tim or Manu to go god mode. I'm betting Tim.

[Ice009]

Question. Can Dice only play 24 minutes a game or something?????

[Rorschach]

Somebody other than manu, Tim, or Tony better step the hell up!!!

[GSH]

Somebody needs to make a couple of 3's. Put in Mason.

Okay... maybe not.

[Shastafarian]

I would be happy if Bonner doesn't play a single minute in the 4th.

[Warlord23]

Ginobili needs to nut up and start shredding the D like he can. Bonner needs to sit this one out.

[EmptyMan]

duncan dice manu hill parker

get it onnnnnnnn

[Spurs Brazil]

Barea, Kidd, Dirk and Dampier played the whole 3rd quarter

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Hopefully Pop doesn't go with a funky lineup for the start of the 4th

[Mal]

Parker with -16. Damn it

[Spurologist]

TP Manu TD RJ Dice.......for almost all the QUARTER!

[TDomination]

So Duncan misses a dunk and they go on a huge run

[Horse]

We got plenty of time only down 4, what a turnaround I mean once Manu fouled dick with his nose somehow, it feel apart but we're still gonna do it.

[HarlemHeat37]

Spurs aren't winning this game unless Manu comes alive and they make some 3-pointers..not exactly going out on a limb there..

[100%duncan]

cant believe it I just cant

[Spurminator]

This JJ Barea thing is good. Hopefully this means Carlisle will start him for the rest of the series and he'll get 35 mpg +.

[stealthjbravo]

fuck!

[m33p0]

Ruff, the Spurs have been fucking up 3rd Quarters since 2008. I'm not sure what it is.

Anyway, way to hang around.. We need either Tim or Manu to go god mode. I'm betting Tim.

funny thing is, before that, it's often been the spurs' best quarter.

[Ice009]

If Dirk does not choke we are dead

Dallas and especially Dirk are at their best when there is no pressure on.

That's why the won in overtime of game 7 in 2006. They had nothing to lose and there was no pressure so they were more relaxed and that is also why the lost to the Heat. When the pressure is on the Mavs folded.

[poop]

thats what ive been saying, send in bogans to stomp on his nuts really hard till blood comes out, that way we get both taken out of the series

[Josepatches_]

Parker with -16. Damn it

true

[Capt Bringdown]

Parker with -16. Damn it

Parker's not a PG, there's a problem.

[Spurs Brazil]

good to see TD there

[EmptyMan]

12 pts you have got to be kidding me

[slick'81]

spurs are winning :ihit this game

[Crookshanks]

duncan dice manu hill parker

get it onnnnnnnn

Yep - no Bonner and no RJ if he's going to stink up the joint. How is it that he had such a great first half in game 2 and he's pretty much invisible in game 3? :bang

[Mal]

Come on, win this shit

[Bob Lanier]

:lol Pop just barely contained himself on that last dumb question.

[NewJerSpur]

Dirk's going to get his, but Barea CANNOT keep killing us like he did last year.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Hopefully it took a lot out of the Mavs to make the comeback and they start the 3th a little gassed similar to game 1.

I think it sounds crazy but maybe TD should play all of the 4th, since the Mavs are up.

And tons of McDyess in quarter #4 as well hopefully.


+1 :ihit

[RashoFan]

:makemyday
LET"S GO SPURS!!!!

[Spurologist]

If Heather was Craig, he'd be crying

[EmptyMan]

Lol marion

[NewJerSpur]

THank GOD for Shawn Marion.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Let's get it going Manu!!!

[EmptyMan]

there you fcuking go manu...there you go

[fred33]

parker's not a pg, there's a problem.

but parker with the bad rotations

[Tp9gospursgo]

Expect Manu to be in Attack mode.

[Libri]

Manu taking charge

[DespЏrado]

If the spurs go on to lose this game, you can look at one thing that took the spurs out of the game, and it wasn't Manu's nose.

It was Parker throwing an errant pass to Jefferson, and then glaring at him rather than running back on defense. He is the floor leader. Yeah Jefferson went in the wrong direction, but that outburst caused a lapse in the mental armor in the Spurs, that caused a 19-2 run by the Mavs.

Parker you need to play the f-ing game and lead by example.

[lurker]

If we could lower the basket, Marion would be AWESOME.

[GSH]

I thought that one was gonna roll out too. We've had more than our share of those tonight.

[ffadicted]

This is Ginobili time now

[lurker]

Motherfucker!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Georgie!!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

[TDomination]

[slick'81]

dallas shot their load spurs time is now

[Mal]

Keep it going !

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

If we could lower the basket, Marion would be AWESOME.


:lol That was awesome

[HarlemHeat37]

Hill giving Barea a taste of his own medicine..

[runback22]

c'mon ref....i'm small.....help a brotha out.....jj barea

[NewJerSpur]

If we could lower the basket, Marion would be AWESOME.

:lol:lol:lol

[Horse]

God I wish Hill could fight gay j in an alley somewhere.

[GSH]

Huuge hustle there by Hill. Then sucked out the offensive foul on Barrea.

[lurker]

:(

[Ice009]

HILL is fighting.

HILL IS FIGHTING.

[100%duncan]

[Capt Bringdown]

[DJ Mbenga]

LMAO what a flop, good momentum shifter.

[Warlord23]

Go Manu!

[EmptyMan]

heart of a lion ladies and gentlemen.

[Mal]

Manu !!!

[Tp9gospursgo]

Manu to the rescue!

[m33p0]

nice aggressive move by hill.

[TheProfessor]

Manu is all that is man!

[Horse]

Who needs a nose anyway?

[superjames1992]

Finally, Manu is showing why he is one of the most clutch players in the league.

[slick'81]

:(

sucks being a mav fan huh

[ffadicted]

You've been ginobili'd!!!

With a broken nooooooose!!!!

[EmptyMan]

The Rocky Balboa of the NBA!

[Ice009]

Supermanu and 1!

[Texas_Ranger]

Yea MANU!!

[NewJerSpur]

Why would we ever shoot any jumpshots? KEEP ATTACKING DAMMIT!!!

[Libri]

Lets give it up for Super Manu. :worthy:

[Spurologist]

+2

FT for manu coming up

[Bob Lanier]

Please foul Dampier out.

[Spurs Brazil]

Is Butler hurt?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Excellent. Had to retake the lead early and not struggle.

As I said a minute ago...

Manu!
Manu!
Manu!
Manu!

[TDomination]

This is intense! i'm literally yelling and jumping in my room hahaha

[007nites]

Ginobili!

[picc84]

Manu's nose created the space needed to finish that layup on Dampier. And-1. Its like a stiff-arm but on his face.

[Mal]

I`m glad to see him taking it the way he usually does

[GSH]

Jefferson pounding Manu on the back of the head... that's gotta hurt right now.

[DAF86]

Parker goes out, the Spurs play better.

Stop the stupidity.

[EmptyMan]

I wish I had that Manu gif where he turns into the hulk

[StoneBuddha]

Damn, I love that man!!

[Horse]

Oh and a healthy Manu would'nt have made a difference last year or 08 against the lakers stupid fuckers!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Is Butler hurt?

nop...mavs go with the little burrito

[NewJerSpur]

Is Butler hurt?

No, but his ego will be.

Butler<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Howard.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

:lmao at a 2 ton truck with "the best fuel economy".

What a load of BULLSHIT.

[Capt Bringdown]

Why would we ever shoot any jumpshots? KEEP ATTACKING DAMMIT!!!
Spot on

[100%duncan]

come on unleash SuperManu and godDuncan!

[SpurOutofTownFan]

Man, they hit Manu in the nose... the nose is sacred.. now Manugeddon will be unleashed on all you mortals!!!

[Mal]

I can`t see it, but +16 is telling that RJ is giving a big advantage

[Shastafarian]

why would we ever shoot any jumpshots? Keep attacking dammit!!!

+∞

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Man to not play Butler a single minute must shred his confidence.

[lurker]

Is Butler hurt?
I think he's having menstrual cramps.

[slick'81]

gospursgo

[taps]

Ole! Ole! Ole! Ole!

[Spurminator]

:lol

The 19 point glare.

Parker haters are funny.

[Crookshanks]

Well I hope that run in the 3rd was all the Mavs had in them tonight. Spurs need to play smart and build on this lead. Timmy and Manu all the way - just like in game 2.

[poop]

RAPE THEM! RAPE THEM! a

[fred33]

stop the stupidity.

parker has played with bonner and blair

[TheChillFactor]

unleash the Kraken!

[slick'81]

a wounded ginobili is more dangerous then meth

[NewJerSpur]

We're letting Dallas' soft interior off the hook everytime we settle for a jumper, stay in the paint, that's all I aksk.

[TDomination]

Sean "Dampier couldnt even guard Ginobili in a phone booth" hahahaha

[Josepatches_]

Ok.Give the ball to Manu or Tim.

Manu has to be who runs the offense.It worked last weeks.
TP has to score but Manu has to be the PG

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Damn Manu is a warrior... His nose is F'd up.

[Mr.Robinson]

a wounded ginobili is more dangerous then meth

lol

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

+∞

How did you put in an infinity symbol? :lol

[Spurologist]

Sean "Dampier couldnt even guard Ginobili in a phone booth" hahahaha

:lmao

[Death In June]

Please put dice back in. Bonner is dead weight.

[Spurs Brazil]

fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[100%duncan]

[NewJerSpur]

Damn.

[EmptyMan]

damn that terry

[HarlemHeat37]

Somebody tell Matt Bonner he needs to do something useful..

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Terry for 3 :(

[Drachen]

Does Terry usually shoot this good against other teams, or is it just us?

[Crookshanks]

Sean "Dampier couldnt even guard Ginobili in a phone booth" hahahaha

Now I wish I could hear the local broadcast instead of watching with no sound. I got tired of Hubie and whoever that other guy is.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Calling Mcdyess....

[Ice009]

I keep saying it STOP GIVING UP THREE POINTERS.

[Spurminator]

Manu should have driven that. Dirk was guarding the basket.

[timtonymanu]

Man we really need to hit 3's.

[GSH]

We lost some momentum in that time out. Settle it down.

[NewJerSpur]

Dodged a bullet on that three. This game is going to go down to the wire.

[Spurologist]

FUCK!

Block Haywood out

[Ice009]

Stop giving up three fucking pointers.

[EmptyMan]

wow what?

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes Bonner!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Is that Stuart Scott? Whoever it is, he's a shockingly bad play by play guy.

[Drachen]

T that kraut UP!

[NewJerSpur]

Good call. Great defense Matt.

[TDomination]

that one made me nervous

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Bonner did something useful!

[100%duncan]

FUCK u Dirk Bavetta has jus double crossed you shit!

[Death In June]

I can't believe my fucking eyes. Did they actually make a bad call on dirk over bonner?

[Crookshanks]

give him a T - give him a T

[GSH]

Yes!!!! Bonner sucks the charge. Not T up Dirky.

[Spurologist]

I thought it was an and1 to be honest

[DJ Mbenga]

tough call cause he wasnt set

[Shastafarian]

lol what a terrible call

[lefty]

Bonner just outwhited Dirk

[Tp9gospursgo]

[Capt Bringdown]

[Mal]

[Ice009]

[Warlord23]

Fucking Bonner is the Mavs' MVP today

[NewJerSpur]

Great defense by Bonner.

[Admidave50]

Bonner despite Dirk's off foul is fucking useless

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Great D by the Rocket. if only he could make a freakin 3.

[007nites]

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Hill just got mauled by Kidd.

[100%duncan]

Ginobili!

[GSH]

Shit... the horse collar is illegal in the NFL. You can hurt someone bad that way. Fuck Kidd.

[resistanze]

Manu is a heartless bastard.

[Libri]

I'm going to have heart failure because of these games.

MANU owns ALL!!!!!!!

[angelbelow]

ginobili is so fun to watch

[Mal]

[NewJerSpur]

LOL @ Haywood moving out of Manu way, LOL. Soft, soft interior defense.

[picc84]

Nobody outside of Lebron is playing as well as Ginobili right now.

[Admidave50]

[m33p0]

[Drachen]

Does anyone else love watching Manu punch the air after an and 1?

[ffadicted]

Holy shit Manu's reaction lol What a fucking beast

[Ice009]

[lurker]

Crawford showed some restraint not giving Dirk a T, I gotta admit.
